DSL-2750U locked me out after Enabling Access Control Mode
« on: March 14, 2018, 02:57:15 AM »

I have a DSL-2750U router connected to my home WiFi with  firmware version ME_1.03

I tried Enabling Access Control Mode
and the web page was loading  . . . (i could see it in the browser)
so i closed the router page to check and make a note of my MAC address
the next thing i know I'm locked out.
Not a single device is connecting to the internet but its connecting to the home Wifi

WiFi SSID is still visible and I'm able to connect to the WiFi with password but can't connect to internet or any web pages
Can't even connect to 192.168.1.1 which is the default gateway
I tried even connecting the laptop to the router with LAN cable and it wasn't connecting to the Default Gateway.

i tried search for the default gateway with ipconfig/all in the cmd.exe
and it was showing

Default Gateway : fe80::1%17
                             192.168.0.254

btw 192.168.0.254 shows the repeater's admin page and can access it (yes i have a WiFi repeater) when connected to the Wifi

Am i missing something?
What's solution for this?

Link>Welcome!

  • What region are you located?

How as the Access control configured? Sounds like you locked everyone out.

Does a ethernet wired PC connect to the modem and get internet access?

If you can't gain access, you'll need to factory reset the router and set up from scratch.

I would review the user manual on how to configure the access control. Try setting the access control up for just one device if thats possible.

You possibly enabled access control and accidentally locked all users out. You will need to reset the router - paperclip in the reset hole - hold for 10 seconds then release.  All settings will be deleted so you will need to reconfigure the modem and router settings.

Isn't there any other option other than resetting and starting from scratch?

Yes you'll need to factory reset. You can use a paper clip or a pen with a fine point to push in on the button. Its completely safe. Theres now high voltages in side the modem.

Have a Ethernet wired PC connected to the modem and use a web browser to log into 192.168.1.1 I believe. Walk the setup wizard and it will help you get the modem re-installed. Download the user manual as well for additional help and information.

Is Ethernet =  LAN Cable?

User manual url? Dlink support doesn't show the user manuals for D-Link DSL-2750U
